Taylor Swift & Charlie Puth: Are They Friends? Is He a Swiftie?

Fans are wondering if Taylor Swift and Charlie Puth are friends following rumored song lyrics from The Tortured Poets Department album appearing online. The lyrics in question mention how Swift “declared Charlie Puth should be a bigger artist,” with the words phrased as a compliment.

Charlie Puth has covered Swift’s “I Knew You Were Trouble” during a 2023 performance in New Jersey. Video footage of the song can be watched below:

As for Taylor Swift, if the leaked TTPD lyrics are accurate, then she appears to approve of Charlie Puth. The line mentioning Puth is sandwiched between the following lyrics:

You smoked and ate seven bars of chocolate.

We declared Charlie Puth should be a bigger artist.

You fall asleep like a tattooed Golden Retriever.

Of course, these lines could well be fabricated by trolls looking to spoil the new album’s release ahead of launch.
